Enterprise Mobile Device Charging Solutions
Charge. Secure. Manage. Deploy.
SynTec works with 51T to deliver professional charging, storage and device-management infrastructure for enterprise mobile technology.
Modern warehouses, logistics operations, retail environments and field-based workforces increasingly depend on mobile computers, rugged tablets and handheld devices to keep their operations moving. But deploying the device is only part of the solution. Those devices need to be charged, stored, secured and ready for the next shift. 51T designs and manufactures rugged enterprise charging solutions in the UK, with products developed specifically around the requirements of business-critical mobile device estates.
Combined with SynTec's partnerships across Zebra, Honeywell, Samsung, Datalogic, SOTI and enterprise networking, we can provide the complete mobility environment — from the device and WiFi network through to the infrastructure used to charge and manage it.
Keep Your Devices Ready for Work
Charging Is Part of the Infrastructure
In an enterprise environment, a flat battery isn't simply inconvenient.
If the device is responsible for picking orders, receiving goods, managing inventory or completing deliveries, an unavailable device can directly affect productivity.
51T develops charging solutions specifically for rugged enterprise devices and fleet environments, including durable USB-C charging cradles, multi-device systems and high-capacity charging cabinets.
SynTec can help design the charging infrastructure alongside the mobile device deployment rather than leaving charging as an afterthought.

A Home for Every Device
51T manufactures rugged charging cradles designed around specific enterprise devices. These can be deployed as individual chargers or incorporated into larger multi-bay configurations for teams operating larger device fleets.
For example, 51T's Zebra TC26 charging system can be configured as a single desk or dash-mounted cradle or incorporated into four, five and six-slot configurations and larger cabinet solutions. This makes them ideal for:
Warehouse Handhelds
Mobile Computers
Rugged Smartphones
Field Service Devices
Retail Devices
Transportation & Logistics
Shared Device Fleets
-
Charge an Entire Fleet in One Place
As the number of mobile devices increases, individual chargers and power supplies can quickly become difficult to manage.
Multi-bay charging provides a much more organised approach.
Devices can have a defined location where they're returned at the end of a shift, charged and made ready for the next user.
This can help create a much more controlled device check-in / check-out process, particularly in warehouses and logistics environments operating multiple shifts.
-
Store. Secure. Charge.
For larger device estates, 51T provides dedicated charging cabinets combining high-capacity charging with secure device storage.
Instead of devices being left on desks, shelves or improvised charging stations, the mobile estate can be brought together into a dedicated charging environment.
This can be particularly valuable for:
Warehouses
Distribution Centres
Manufacturing
Retail
Education
Healthcare
Transport & Logistics
Multi-Shift Operations

More Than a Charging Cabinet
For organisations requiring greater control over valuable mobile assets, the 51T Smart Charging Cabinet takes device management significantly further.
The cabinet combines charging and secure storage with asset-management functionality.
Features include barcode and QR scanning, NFC/smart-card access and electronic double locking, while the cabinet is designed to provide tracking and controlled access to equipment stored within it.
This allows organisations to move from simply asking:
"Has the device been charged?"
to:
"Which device was taken, who took it and has it been returned?"
-
In a large warehouse, there may be dozens or hundreds of handheld devices shared between employees and shifts.
That creates some common operational problems:
Devices going missing
Users taking the wrong device
Devices not being returned
Flat batteries at the start of a shift
Damaged devices going unreported
Difficulty identifying who last used a device
Smart charging infrastructure can help introduce much greater control around this process.
51T's Smart Cabinet supports multiple identification methods, including RFID/NFC, PIN, barcode and QR, providing controlled access to the equipment stored within it.
-
Change the Device — Not Necessarily the Infrastructure
One of the things we particularly like about 51T is its modular design philosophy.
Enterprise mobile technology changes.
A warehouse may standardise on one handheld today and move to a newer generation several years later.
51T designs its charging infrastructure so components can be repairable, replaceable and upgradeable, with its modular systems allowing elements to be changed to accommodate newer mobile devices.
This can help extend the useful life of the underlying charging infrastructure and improve the return on investment from a larger deployment.

51T is a British manufacturer, with its solutions designed and handmade in the UK.
The company uses 3D-printing prototyping as part of its design and production process, allowing it to develop and adapt solutions while reducing material waste during prototyping.
For customers with unusual requirements, this design capability also creates opportunities for more tailored charging solutions rather than relying entirely on standard off-the-shelf accessories.

One Charging Partner Across Your Mobile Estate
51T designs charging solutions for a wide variety of device manufacturers.
Its current portfolio includes support for manufacturers such as Zebra, Honeywell and Samsung, alongside a much wider range of mobile technology.
That's particularly relevant to SynTec because these technologies already form part of our wider enterprise mobility portfolio.
It allows us to consider the device and its charging infrastructure together when designing a deployment.

Vehicle Charging
Keep Mobile Technology Working on the Road
51T also develops charging and mounting solutions for vehicle-based mobile technology.
Its experience covers vehicles from manufacturers including Ford, Mercedes-Benz, DAF, MAN, Iveco, Renault, Peugeot, Citroën, Fiat, Vauxhall and VW.
This makes the technology particularly relevant for:
Transport & Logistics
Delivery Fleets
Field Service
Utilities
Mobile Engineering Teams
Commercial Vehicles
SynTec can combine vehicle charging with the appropriate mobile computer or rugged tablet to create a complete field mobility solution.
